When your students succeed, so do you.
Schools offering national certification as part of their programs report better recruitment, retention and placement – all important factors for accreditation and enrollment.
And the trend toward national certification is increasing. A substantial number of state agencies, hospitals, private practices and unions throughout the country already require national certification as a competency standard. National certification has proven to be a valuable asset in securing employment as well as advancement on any career ladder.
About The NHA
The National Healthcareer Association was established in 1989 with the vision of implementing national competency standards to promote quality patient care in alignment with the benchmarks developed by the NHA.
We are the leader in providing preparation and certification in 10 allied health professions to assure more qualified healthcare givers.
Some of these high-touch careers include people who draw blood for lab work, assist licensed nurses, specialize in medical billing, transcribe physician’s orders, perform EKGs and work in pharmacies. Individuals who choose these types of hands-on careers literally affect peoples’ lives and they need special training in order to perform their jobs correctly. They need to be certified.
While certification is good for patients, it’s also good for students’ careers.
Recommended and approved by colleges and healthcare career programs around the country, NHA’s certification and continuing education programs have helped nearly 200,000 individuals earn a higher pay scale, better job opportunities, career advancement and security. That number grows by the minute as the healthcare industry grows, and as more and more states require or recommend certification for allied healthcare professions.
